Inspire Planner Page

 Happy Saturday! 


For today's post, I've created this fun Inspire Planner Page which features the Planner Essentials Collection. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Planner Page at home.
To start, die cut the large heart from the Planner Essentials 20 - Half Heart die out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Choose one of the stencils from the Summer Kit. Place the stencil in the middle of the heart. Sprinkle Magenta Nuance in Hot Pink, Jade and Wisteria over the stencil. Leave the stencil where it is and spritz with water. Remove stencil and allow the stenciled area to dry. Once the stenciled area is dry, ink the edges of the heart using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


From the Planner Essentials 21 - Note Pieces die, you'll need the small and medium note piece as well as the stitched curved rectangle. Die cut the medium note piece out of vellum. Die cut the stitched curved rectangle piece out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Die cut the small note piece out of a piece of patterned paper. Ink the edges of the small note piece and stitched curve rectangle using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
From the Planner Essentials 22 - Planner Pocket 3 - Top Loading die, die cut the arrow and reinforcement strips out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Ink the edges fo the arrows and reinforcement strips using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
From the Planner Essentials 26 - Planner Pocket 4 - Tag & Toppers die, you'll need the stitched banner, tab, arrow label and inspire word. Die cut the inspire word out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Die cut the arrow label out of the patterned paper you used for the small note piece. Choose another piece of patterned paper that coordinates with the previous patterned paper and die cut the stitched banner as well as the tab out of it. Ink the edges of the arrow label, stitched banner and tab using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Next, you'll need the small leaf and heart branch from the Planner Essentials 25 - Double Heart. Die cut the small leaf out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Choose another piece of coordinating patterned paper and die cut the heart branch out of it.
From the Flower Power die, you'll need three of the flowers or buds. Die cut one bud set out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Die cut the other bud from the same patterned paper you used for the heart branch. Die cut the third flower from the same patterned paper you die cut the tab and stitched banner out of.
Adhere the reinforcement strips over top of the holes on the heart page.
Foam square the small note piece 3/4" from the left and 1 1/2" from the top of the page. Adhere the stitched curved rectangle 1/2" from the left and 1/4" from the top of the small note piece. Adhere the medium note piece 1 1/4" from the right and 3/4" from the top of the heart. Adhere the tab to the top of the medium note piece as desired. Put a foam square on the back of the tab and adhere to the heart page.
Staple the arrow label to the right side of the arrow. Adhere the arrow and arrow label 2 1/4" from the right and 1" from the top of the heart.
Adhere the buds, flower, heart branch and small leaf as desired over top of the arrow and arrow label. Make sure that you can still see some of the arrows. Staple the inspire word to the stitched banner. 
To finish your page, use adhesive and foam squares to adhere the stitched banner 1 1/2" from the left and 1" from the bottom of the heart.
Here are a few closeup photos of the page.



Here is the finished Inspire Planner Page.
